What is an OTF knife?

With a spring assisted open and close action, Out The Front or OTF knives are ideal one handed every day carry tools. The action is inertia fed with a safety feature that prevents the blade from extending or retracting if it encounters any resistance.

Build Your Griffin In 3 Steps

Step 1: Size

The Griffin OTF comes in three sizes:

2.75 Inch
3 Inch
3.75 Inch

The handle is a high-grade aluminum alloy with a standard TPR finish. There is a belt clip for ease of carry as well as glass break for safety.

Step 2: Blade Steel and Style

All Griffins are available in both a 440C and a D2 steel. Both are excellent steels and are very durable and long lasting. D2 is a harder steel and tends to hold an edge a bit longer in between sharpenings. Both steels are available as serrated or non-serrated. Blades are available in Drop point, Tanto, and Spear point styles.

Step 3: Cerakote (Finish)

Cerakote is a US baked on ceramic coating created in 1984 and is the gold standard for providing the maximum protection for your OTF.

We HIGHLY recommend coating your knife.

Cerakote H Series coatings are durable corrosion-resistant and provide unparalleled levels of hardness and adhesion.

These coatings are also resistant to most solvents and chemicals.
